Thia tlofimioo of tho solar systoiu may ho ropnnlotl by somo un
thinkiiiti jHvtplo as a joke, mul ronolusivo proof tlwtt Hrothor Fishor
is n tint. Hut ftftov l-oavlins tho statements of othov cnndulatos in
the same pamphlet, a fair-miiulotl person will nuroo that there is a
striking tliftVrcnoo between defy inn the sun to sot in the west nini
defying it to not "on" the west; just s there is a striking ilit'for
enec between promising to retlnoo taxes and retluoinn them.
yir. Fisher is merely slightly celestial in temperament. He has the
creative imagination. The Kising Sun symholi.es nefarious. Nippon,'
itud with the help of Almighty Uod, there is no reason to doubt, that
Mr. Fisher's adjuration will prevail.
Certainly if a candidate for governor who always voted for tax in
creases, as a legislator can, be elected on a tax reduction platform,
nnd another candidate for governor whoso visibility is high, can
promise to give us a government, which is not visible at all, thou a
little thing like preventing the Sun Jfrom setting on the west, can not
te such an amazing performance after all.
Mr. Fisher also declares he will not ask Wall Street for his daily
opinion. That's good. Wall street has been having enough trouble
of late, with a failure every other day. Why persecute the brokers!
"The greatest class of American citizens today are the workers,
they arc human!" Another excellent discovery. Lone Wolf, the
I. W. W. advance agent, once said, no man could work and remain
human. Loue Wolf was wrong. Mr. Fislier is right. !
And Mr. Fisher is human. That is all he demonstrates in this
engaging manifesto. He is merely doing what all the other candi
dates are doing. claiming tho earth and solar system, only in n
jnorc poetic way. . '

ONE TIIIXG is true, when other things arc lies the taxes
rise, and higher still they rise. I view the past, the golden
yesteryear when twenty bnes would make my record clear. Yea,
twenty bucks would cover all my tax, and yet I yelled like forty
seven yaks. "The government," I used to sadly ay, "just holds
me up, and bears rny wad away." A hundred bones, where one.
I coughed up ten, 1 now dig up for tax collecting men ; assessors
come and cinch my bottom plunk, this thing is true, though other
things be bunk. Ami yet, perhaps, if taxes were to fdirink, the
land we love would soon be' on the blink. We're paving roads,
and building finer schools, and ornate jails, to house bootlegging
fools; the money goes, blown in with princely grace, to make the
world a nobler, better place." If this is true it is not wise to roar
because we're cinched far tighter than of yore. If this is true, we
should be dead game ttports and boost the football team, while
banners float and eager eagles scream. One thing is true,' when
other things are lies if there's no gas the motor alwava dies.

Baptism
The Cathcllc Church teaches that tho Sacrament of Baptism is
absolutely necessary for salvation. Christ Hiroeslf not the Catholic
Church imposed this condition. John 3-S, "Verily verily, 1 say
unto tbee, except one be born of water and the 8pirlt, he cannot enter
into tho kingdom of God." Since Baptism is so necessary, any per
Kon. in case ot f;ravo emergency, can baptise another, by having tho
proper Intention and pouring water on the head of the person, saying
ut tho samo time, VI buptlzo thee in the name of the Father and of
tho Son und of tho Holy Ghost." ilutt. 28-20.
